The only one that completed the voyage was the Victoria.
Ferdinand Magellan did not ride that ship as he died in the Philippines, bt his crew came back on the ship Victoria, the last remaining ship out of the 5.
Victoria
Ferdinand Magellan explored South America, Cebu, East Indies, Mactan, Philipines, and Guam. The dates of his explorations were from 1519 to 1522. Magellan died in the Philippines during the first circumnavigation of the Earth. Only one of his ships successfully returned to Spain, carrying 18 men of the original 237 that left Spain.
Among several, Magellan claimed the Philippine Islands for the nation of Spain. In all, the Philippines comprise some 7,000 islands in the Pacific Ocean.
roughly 23,000 miles... im actually not sure but its a slightly educated guess.
Though born into Portuguese nobility, Ferdinand Magellan (1480-1521) was sailing for Spain's King Charles I, having been refused support by Emmanuel I of Portugal. In 1519, Magellan captained the first circumnavigation of the world, but died during the voyage in 1521 while battling natives in the Philippines. Only 1 of his 5 ships and 18 of his 250 men completed the journey back to Spain in 1522.
Other ships are destroyed because of a typhoon, others from a war while others sank. Only Victoria, returned to Spain.
The Victory is the only ship to return to Spain from Magellan's expedition.

Not only did he sail to asia, but he died there. He was killed by natives after claiming their island for Spain. The island was Cebu in the Philippines, and LapuLapu the guy that killed Magellan is considered a national hero.
Only one nation supported and funded for Magellan's sea exploration: the Kingdom of Spain.

On November 20 1529, the San San Antonio Ship,led by Portuguese Esteban Gomez, escaped from Magellan's fleet and returned to Spain. Magellan continued with the expedition with only three (3) ships left,namely CONCEPCION,TRINIDAD and VICTORIA
Of the five ships that Ferdinand Magellan took on his Pacific Ocean expedition, only one, the Victoria, returned to Spain. It was commanded by captain Juan Sebastián Elcano, who led the expedition after Magellan was killed on the island of Mactan (now part of the Philippines).

No nope it wasn't Columbus neither Magellan it was Juan Sebastian Elcano. Magellan didn't complete the circumnavigation because he died before the battle of Mactan in Pre colonial Philippines and Elcano continued the voyage back to Spain with Victoria (the only surviving ship of 5 from Magellan's expedition)
